Even if the Wii U dropped to 100 dollars I doubt it could handle what the PS4 is going to dish out this Holiday season ( agree?). But what about the X1? Splatoon alone got the Wii U with in a certain range of the X1, so a 100 dollar price point could be huge!

You mean for a few weeks? Sure. Not for the whole holiday.

Wii U has fallen back into the 40s and its holiday line up is no where near as strong as Xbox which has Halo, StarWars, Call of Duty, Fallout 4, Assassins Creed, Need for Speed etc. Microsoft will likely sell more units in Oct, November and December then Nintendo will sell throughout the whole year. I don't think the price elasticity of the Wii U is that big, its a niche console just like the Vita. A $100 price drop will give it a massive 2 weeks and a baseline boott but not something the X1 wouldn't completely obliterate from Blackfriday sales alone.
